charity: water

Charity: water is a non-profit organization bringing clean, safe drinking water to people in developing nations.

We use 100% of public donations to directly fund sustainable water solutions in areas of greatest need. Right now, 800 million people on the planet don’t have access clean and safe drinking water. That’s one in nine of us. Unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation cause 80% of diseases and kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war. Children are especially vulnerable, as their bodies aren’t strong enough to fight diarrhea, dysentery and other illnesses.

Just $20 can give one person access to clean water. More information about charity: water is available at www.charitywater.org.

The Student Conservation Association (SCA)

The SCA builds new generations of conservation leaders and inspires lifelong stewardship of our environment and communities by engaging young people from all backgrounds in hands-on service to the land.

Tens of thousands of green professionals, from park superintendents to urban planners, can trace their start to SCA. This is where college and high school students connect with nature, render hands-on service, gain new skills and perspectives, and launch a lifetime of stewardship. More information about SCA is available at www.thesca.org.
